“Shadow of the Erdtree was badly written because Freyja saying Radahn would happily return and wage endless war if given the chance is a huge retcon that ruins both characters”

I feel like maybe we as the player are simply supposed to recognize that Freyja was like. incorrect about this.

#they can’t read item descriptions #and more importantly you can admire and look up to somebody but be wrong about what they want and what’s best for them #I’m pretty sure the conclusion we’re meant to draw here is that Miquella’s plans are harming people or ignoring what’s best for them #Freyja’s loyalties are skewed because she owes Miquella and loves to fight. that doesn’t make her dumb or bad. she’s just incorrect here.#she’s not infallible and correct about everything she says just because she’s beefy and hot #remember Ansbach thought Freyja would see the situation as Radahn being used the same way Mohg is #he was mistaken (and obviously the fact he chose to follow Mohg also calls HIS judgement into question)#maybe there’s simply another interpretation that means we don’t have to disavow the DLC forever is all #look I’m sorry to be so snotty about it but I DON’T get this reflexive hostility to the SotE ending #anyway.#ER narrative #SotE spoilers #Freyja #Shadow of the Erdtree #Radahn #Miquella #Mohg
